Our Vision for Science at St Aidan's
We were treated to a visit from 'Mad Science'.
Here are some photos of the Mad Science assembly
Throughout the Science curriculum children are given the opportunity to understand the world around them. In Foundation Stage the children are provided with a range of activities and opportunities to explore the environment in order to grasp an understanding of the world around them.
In Key Stage One and Two the children explore Living Things, Materials and Physical Processes. At St. Aidan’s children research, design their own experiments, ensure fair testing, observe, measure, record and draw conclusions. Great Science lessons at St. Aidan’s include practical, hands-on investigation and enquiry; excitement, fun, inspiration and innovation; giving children the independence to question, explore and make discoveries – delivering the ‘Eureka’ moment! And by doing this, ensuring every child is making progress as a scientist.
